Message: [QUOTE="KingWebcke, post: 2522859, member: 8372"] I think you can say there was a decent chance of a try being scored. You make the whole play sound a lot more complicated than it actually was. It was a chip over the top and whether a try is scored or not really just depended on whether a Newcastle player could arrive in time to contest and win the ball. The fact that the bomb was coming down 10m from the try line is a very minor issue. If Boyd won the contest then the try would almost certainly be on because Slater would be going the wrong direction/knocked down and there would be no Storm defenders near (hence why Cronk tried to pull down Boyd in the first place). it would have been Slater vs. Boyd with two Newcastle players in support and the Storm defenders rushing in the wrong direction. It wasn't going to be a clear try but if Boyd has the opportunity to contest the kick then it was a pretty dangerous play. [/QUOTE]
